ANGELA is in high school. She's dreamy, like from the virgin suicides. She expresses herself through dance.

14-16. Angsty teen phase. Greasy hair. Wears a hoody and headphones. His parents don't understand him. He's lonely. He's quite popular with his friend group but can't find a way to access them, trapped in the suburbs and too young to drive a car to them. A small bubble of hatred for his family is slowly growing. He smokes weed and walks around aimlessly looking for answers.

50s. Semi-retired. He wears a Hawaiin shirt, lei-flowers, and drinks Mai Tais completelty un-ironically. It is impossible to tan his pale Albertan skin. It only burns. He has not shaved his mustache since he first grew it at age 19. He left Grand Prairie and moved to 'the big city' of Edmonton, to start a small business with his high school sweetheart Mary Anne.

50s. She has the 'mom cut'. Speaks in platitudes. She is afraid of truly being herself, living under her husband's thumb. She seeks comfort and drinks to numb her own curiosities. She has a 'life is a cabernet' painting on her kitchen mantle and genuinely loves it. She loves her son but doesn't know how to get through to him. She's a good person.

Leanne is open to interpretation and the ideal candidate will also audition with 2 of her own young children. Open to candidates without children as well. Leanne is a lightly humorous character--bringing physical comedy in how she and her children walk to the mall, how they dress alike.

Kelsey lives a short bus ride from the West Edmonton Mall and got a summer job there that turned into a full time position. She recently graduated High School and finds herself at a strange cross-roads...at a job she has no future or interest in, in a place she looks compeltely out of place. It could be interesting if Kelsey's visual makeup was in striking juxtaposition to the park. Is she a goth? Is she Gen Z (hunter schaefer euphoria makeup?). Open to striking faces and all identities. She’s quiet and introspective but carries herself with a subtle confidence. Beneath her bold exterior, there’s a sense of vulnerability, especially when she’s caught in isolating moments, like being stranded in a snowstorm after leaving the mall or when she eats alone in the food court.
